Sanatorium/Sandon House, Schools Hill, Cheadle.
The Sanatorium, had originally been built in 1927 to provide medical treatment for the Belmont inhabitants and cost over £6000 to build. It had been erected and equipped 'in memory of John Dewhurst Milne' who had lived and died at Belmont House, by members of his family. It was officially opened on the 28th May by Sir Alfred Hopkinson, who represented other members of the family whom had been kept away by the serious illness of Mrs J D Milne. It was converted into a Toddlers Group Home in 1954 and then a family group home in 1957 called Sandon House. This branch was closed down in 1963 and the inhabitants were transferred to the newly opened Lockhart House.
